Dogs and Cats

Well, this: https://www.facebook.com/IlhanMN/photos/pcb.3838176869624244/3838175932957671/ It’s a cute bit, nothing world changing, and probably was really easy to put together, so it says very little about the politician presenting it, and if it was a politician I didn’t like, I would probably accuse them of being shallow and pandering.
After all, it doesn’t take much to put a pair of glasses on a pit-bull mix and have it be cute. That’s automatically cute. The only thing cheesier than using animals in this way is using children in this way.
But, I like Ilhan Omar, I like her ideas and I think she’s doing a great job. And this is original, at least until everybody else starts copying the format, because it’s easy to do and, as the last couple of decades have proven, something that people absolutely never get tired of: cute animal photos. It may win her a few votes, and if it does, I’m happy about that.

    I was wondering what it meant to “stan” something, or was it a typo? Looked it up, it’s a new internet word for being an obsessive fan, as in “Stan” from the Eminem song, maybe derived from “stalker fan”.I’m so hip!
